Bandhani Dupattas For Women

The Bandhani Dupatta has been exclusively carried out by the Khatri community of Kutchh and Saurashtra.

The name bandhani means tying up, as it taken by Hindi pronoun ‘Bandhan’.

It is also known as Bandhej Dupatta. The technique in the making of this dupatta is as old as the Indus Valley Civilization till today. Bandhani dupattas are famous particularly in Rajasthan and Gujarat but people of some other cities also use this as a style statement as it gives the royal touch to the whole attire.

Method of Making Bandhej Dupattas

The technique is to tie the fabric with a grain, pearls, cotton etc to make a dot or square pattern. The size of the dots depends on the size of the object tied in the fabric. These dots ultimately make a pattern. Threads are secured till the dyeing process is completed. The covered cloth remains uncolored and the exposed cloth gets dyed. Various patterns can be made by Artisans by tying and/or stitching the fabric in different ways.
